Disadvantages: Abuse

Having gone through a long history with domestic violence, i am so glad that people are talking about it. It is something that effects not only myself but millions of women and children around the world. Domestic violence effects a persons self esteem, self confidence, self worth, and a number of other things. Its not just the physical aspect of the abuse either, it is also verbal and mental abuse. Sometimes words can be so much more powerful and hurtfull than any punch or slap. It also teaches your children that its ok to hurt people, if they grow up in that kind of enviroment, they tend to mimic what they see, and repeat what they hear. I broke free from the violence in my life and i was lucky, some people never make it out. Although i still think about it from time to time, i know i dont have to live my life that way ever again.

Summary: its a bad situation for the whole family
